90 Points! - Wine Enthusiast

"This blend is a solid introduction to the Kilikanoon range. Subtle toast and vanilla shadings accent dark chocolate and plum notes, and the wine is full bodied and sturdy without being tough. Finally ending in a soft flurry of dusty tannins. Drink now–2018." (usual retail $25)
